This has been a short but busy and productive week! Div. 13 finished up their acrostic Peace poems and yesterday made these cute fall gnomes. We were all sad to say goodbye to Sean but wish him and his family all the best in Powell River.
This week we started our Reader's Workshop stations that included our Book Club, this means that some of the students have already brought home a book with a post it. Please practise these books and encourage your child to bring their book bags daily to school. Thanks for your help with this. Also you should be able to access Raz Kids from the link on the side please let me know if you have any difficulties.
Friday, November 24th is going to be packed fill of fun and adventure. We have decided to CANCEL Family Reading to give us a bit more time the classroom before we leave for Fort Langley. If you haven't signed up on the portal please do so asap and if you said you were paying cash please do so as soon as possible. We had a great response from parents to join us for this field trip. Thanks to Gavin, Easton, Cai, Massimo, Vienna, Rhett, Deighton, Aneka, and Blake's parents who have volunteered to join us. Please arrive at the 9:20. The extra cost for the parent volunteers will be $5.00 please send in this cash (this cost is shared amongst all of you). If you are no longer able to join us please let me know asap so I can make the adjustments. The field trip is 2 hours, the majority of the time we will be outside (rain or shine) so please dress for the weather. Your child should have an easy to eat snack in their pocket. We will arrive back to the school to our hot lunches. It is also our Club RED Book as Movie day, we will unfortunately miss the hallway reading but they could still bring their books to share in the morning. After lunch we will be watching the animated version of 'The Grinch' in the gym. Please let me know if you are not comfortable with this and if so there will be an alternate activity provided in a classroom instead.
Conference Sign up will be available on the portal Thursday, November 23 (this will be posted by 4 pm at the latest). In looking ahead to our student-led conferences on Dec. 7 & 8. It is an approximate 30 minute commitment (1st 15 minutes with your child in the hall to go through their work and celebrate their work and then up to 15 minutes with me). I need to plan ahead to organize if you unable to attend the conference with your child in person and would prefer a virtual zoom conference please email as I need to set these up differently so that the times work out.
